The town of Newport is located on the N59 in County Mayo. From Newport, take the N59 in the direction of Achill and after 16km reach the village of Mulranny. On the outskirts of the village watch for a junction where the N59 turns right and leaves the R319 which continues straight ahead (signposted Achill). Turn right here and follow the N59 in the direction of Bangor. After 16km you reach the village of Ballycroy – look for the signs for the ferry to Inishbiggle.
